Oh god, I think I wound up buying BG3 3 or 4 times between buying it for myself, a physical collector's edition copy for myself, and giving it to a couple friends for birthdays and christmas and such. And I'd do it again. Larian Studios deserves all my money. 😜

This response is extremely valid and I agree she definitely made missteps and mistakes during that time. I hate that for that former employee..

I want to shoutout this TikTok creator who did a fantastic video on the same topic and really helped me solidify some of the thoughts and feelings I was having about the song.

Or... the floor is on fire because your body has yet again gone numb, and everything is chaos, and as you're struggling through yet another night of "dark moonlight" you can't quite seem to find your footing.
It's painful. It's beautiful.
Love you, Gaga.

I think the one line that hits me the hardest is, "Feel the beat under your feet, the floor's on fire!" Like, you can interpret that in a fun way, like... "The floor's on fire!" You're dancing, burning up the dance floor!

She uses a walking cane at one point in the choreography, and the entire dance is so chaotic, almost like watching someone struggle to control their own body.

The first time I heard the song I was, like everyone, just in awe. But every time I watched that video I felt like I was understanding it better, seeing something that goes beyond its surface level appeal as a gritty, dance hall bop.

When she started speaking out about her chronic health conditions, I sobbed, realizing this artist I already loved so much was going through some of the same struggles I also face.

I've been a Gaga fan since Just Dance; I was at exactly the right age to fall in love with her in dance clubs throughout the early to mid-2000s.

She takes some of the same medications I take for my ischemic migraines (she's a spokesperson for Nurtec; if you live in the US you've probably seen her commercials). Fibromyalgia is a very similar condition to what I have and a lot of people who have one wind up with both.

She's speaking her art into existence while refusing to succumb to the pain.
For anyone who doesn't know, Lady Gaga has endured severe fibromyalgia for most of her adult life. She went through a pretty serious hip injury recently and couldn't dance at her usual level for quite a while as a result.

The word itself is ancient, and its origins are murky, but many scholars speculate it may originate from the Aramaic phrase 'avra kedabra' or the Hebrew phrase 'ebrah k'dabri' both of which essentially translate to, "I create as I speak."

For the record, it never did snow here the other day. It apparently did snow in every other locality within a 20 mile radius of my city block. Lol, okay

I finally did get it to work the other day, but it’s buggy as hell and I’m not sure if there’s still a time limit. Hopefully they fix it soon

For sure, cave people were out there like:
"What was that scary noise in the woods?"
"Idk, sounded kinda hot tho"
"👀"
"😜"
